Hermit Wizard

* * *

“You're here.”

Appointment venue is near the border between Gyeonggi-do and Seoul. It was a café by the river. There were no civilians around the indoor and outdoor buildings whether they had been hand-written by the government in advance. Even though they are in plain clothes, they are planted by the government.

“Long time no see.”

Minister Choi Soo-soo stood up and greeted him.

“You look tired. ”

“Ah, no. It's okay.”

The shade beneath his denying eyes is clear. The work of the Ministry of Agriculture is not directly related to the current situation, but is the government upside down enough that it can't sleep properly? No, probably because of Minister Choi Soo's special current situation.

“Still, it sure works like a black gift. ”

Ironically, after lifting the tiring trail, he looked much better than before. The wrinkles on the skin were much reduced and the body was slightly but firmer. A body that looks like it has regained roughly 10 to 20 years of youth, although it is not a dramatic change when the old man turns into a young man. One might mistakenly think it's a good plastic surgeon. But it was not medicine that brought about this change.

“Aah! I'm embarrassed. The country is so dizzy and I have a face all by myself. ”

The minister blushes his face as if interfaced.

In fact, the reverse of aging is a miracle that is impossible to write an elixir. Black Giraffe did it.

Through my channel, the minister, who passed to the world of giraffes, travelled with her to the place where the plants of the earth were planted. By the way, black giraffe gardens are gardens. In fact, they are an area that is abandoned in the Amazon jungle. Does the number of giraffes managing the garden correspond to the population of that crazed country in the world?

I used the fog to move quickly, but the minister would be easily exhausted. Then Giraffe said, “Why are you so old and weak?" and he made him drink something. The result is sitting right in front of your eyes.

“It looks like I need special power to make it, but once I get the seed that is the material, it's being studied by the relevant institution. Do you need Yoon Min Joon? ”

“Oh, I'm fine. ”

You don't need an elixir of rejuvenation right now, but you can ask Giraffe directly when you need it.

“Well, I'll give you what you've prepared. ”

When he put the packet on the table, I took what I gave him out of my backpack.

What the minister brought was several encyclopedia grade thick books, and one USB stick. All I gave you was one little marble.

“This is a book that records what giraffes asked for when they crossed the world, and what else could be helpful. ”

He opens the book and explains. It was a book full of pictures and drawings because the text would not work anyway. I watched it spill. I'm not interested in crop cultivation.

“And this USB contains what Yoon Min-jun asked for. It's a case of 42 channels in total. Everything that our government has been able to figure out is unquestionably contained. ”

I nodded and put it in my arms. There's no such thing as a location tracking function on the USB, is there? In case you don't know, before you go to the flat, you have to moderately interfere with the propagation.

“42 is less than you think? ”

It's been a while since the number of open channels on Earth has exceeded 400.

“Yes. If you could access the channel, any government would have tried. Seoul and Busan channels are a little bit special. ”

I sealed the entrance to Seoul, and Busan Channel is already blocking the entrance to this side of what Gramiel wrote. It may have been a precaution taken to guard against chaos songs. Either way, it's only physically blocked, and the absorption of the soul is going on steadily.

“Unless it was a harsh environment where humans and power machines could not enter, we would have sent an expedition on a government-led basis, but the information we could get was very limited. ”

Nod. I'm sure the information on this USB was the best we could get from the Korean spy. The information defense situation in each country will be thorough after the Channel crisis.

I put the USB in my arms. The results of exploring the two-dimensional dimension beyond the 42 channels held abroad are contained in this report. I intend to go home and review it slowly. And by contrast to the academic record information that Parvasse can access, you can approximate what the dimensions are.

“You can just touch a person's forehead. ”

I explain the bead. Parvasch, who finished replacing himself, studied Yodmo's memory decision, and mocked and crafted it through me. I did not extract someone's memory, but copied and put in some of the knowledge I knew of mathematics. It's a materialized idea.

“Then you will gain knowledge of magic. Of course, it'll take some time to digest it completely. ”

“Yes, thank you very much. ”

The Minister of Agriculture put it on a small scale with a serious expression. I think I still have something to say to my lips.

“Teacher Yoon Min-jun. From now on, I would like to say · · ·. ”

I replied with a bitter smile.

“Yes, I can't help it. Tell me. You have to do what I told you above. ”

I know it's an offer to refuse, but I'm forced to take it out of my mouth. The minister is busy, so I hit the player. I will not make another offer to provide a safe house.

“As you can imagine, the government is now preparing to run the Wizard Training Center again. ”

I nod quietly. The government seems to have drawn one conclusion from the stories I have told, Minister Choi's testimony, and information obtained from foreign governments on both official and informal routes.

A group that has been terrorizing wizards' training centers around the world, including the Hun Leung Training Center, since the channel opened. A recent conclusion was that the organization, the guardian of the Great Convention, which committed genocide at Incheon Airport, had collapsed in irreversible damage.

Now that the most hostile risk factors have disappeared, the Korean government is determined to resume the training of wizards in earnest. I heard you've imported Instructor Kaifu again. This time, instead of relying solely on them, I think I intend to use the knowledge I have received.

I ask.

“So?”

“And our government happened to know that Yoon Min-jun is protecting Wizard Kim Gyeong-hwan and Hwang Soo-rim. ”

On the day the tentacles were rushed and the apostle's body was pierced, a government that was frightened by the events that followed everywhere shot a drone from a distance and apparently captured Kim Kyung-hwan and the Empress Forest with unidentified xenophobics.

“If those two wizards who already have a considerable level of magic knowledge come as training center instructors. ”

“Neither of us should do that right now. I also confirmed I didn't have a doctor. ”

The two have already experienced threats from China, and the Korean government has virtually failed to protect them.

As the minister assumes, he nods.

“We can't help it. Please understand that our government is saying this again. The world is already losing its old balance and is in jeopardy. The epidemiological relationship between countries is also a much more complex and intense situation, and now we have to consider the foreign dimension as well. In a reality where China does not care about the eyes of other countries and reveals greed, the training of wizards is an indispensable defence. ”

That's why, I guess, it's about maintaining a partnership with me that doesn't have any doubts. I'm sure you can identify me with the catastrophe that occurred earlier, but I'm going to pack it up as an ally in any way I can.

“We've already had enough tragedy to shake the foundations of our country. An unidentified xenophobic group that appeared in Busan Channel, a group of wizards who were massacred at Incheon Airport. The former has not shown itself since the incident, and even if the latter were now extinct, we do not know what other beings will come as national threats in the future. We must cultivate the power to protect the people of this country. ”

If there was a direct connection between the two events, I did not hear them comfortably.

“· · · Incheon Airport started operating again? ”

The minister replied with a dark expression.

“The finished third runway is continuing its recovery work. It was originally unbearable traffic with two runways, but unfortunately the number of airlines operating in Incheon declined dramatically because of the incident. Nationals are also reduced to airports because of the aircraft that was destroyed that day. ”

When I heard the story, I naturally thought of the floorboard that day when I flipped over the ground at the airport with impulse and threw the plane like a stone. · · · · Hmm.

“· · · News reports that one of the airlines is about to go bankrupt. ”

“We don't have enough aircraft, and at least it was a leasing company, and it was a big hit. Beyond the mountains, the reinsurers are picking up the house with the terms and conditions of the aircraft insurance. I heard that this is not in keeping with the traditional definition of war and terrorism. It's going to be a long court fight. Maybe there's a public fund transfusion. ”

He said a few more words afterwards. Of the TOP2 reinsurers worldwide, the German company was devastated by the Munich channel and the British company was the only one taking over aircraft insurance, and in addition to the current lawsuit, it notified all insurance contract terminations for Korean airlines. The state must guarantee payment by terminating the liability insurance.

Due to events leading up to the annual elections, the public's fear of security has reached a pole, and accusations against the government flow to the media and the Internet. The stock market has no promises of when it will reopen. Although it is not in a position to compare with some countries where government functions have already been suspended, South Korea has already ranked first when it comes to the damage caused by the channel.

The minister put up such a grim story and suddenly changed the subject.

“And I think I'll be coming down from the ministerial seat soon. ”

What is it, light?

But what follows was different from what I expected.

“There was a judgment that I couldn't handle the work of the Ministry of Agriculture anymore. I think you'll only focus on what you're doing now. ”

“· · · No way? ”

“Yes, I'm talking to Yoon Min Joon. The presidential organization is going to create a new one, and I think it's going to move in that direction. ”

It was not a ministerial position, but it was a kind of promotional concept and he said he would come and go more often than before. I heard it with a vague expression.

“And I have to tell you the story of the Wizard Kim Kyung-hwan again. There's no way we can contact you right now. ”

After listening to what follows, I frown.

“Can't you be persuasive? ”

“Yes. If we don't keep in touch like this, we are in a tough position to report it to the press. ”

I heard the situation. Kim Kyung-hwan has a sister, and she knows that her brother is under government protection. However, I've been asking you so hard lately to contact my brother. If I can't be sure if Kim Kyung-hwan is doing well, I think it's a difficult situation because I threatened to divulge the location of the Hauntung Training Center.

“To him, I can't say that Wizard Kim Kyung-hwan is with Yoon Min-jun, and I can't say that he's missing. We have to say that we have it well. ”

It was also the bai that Kim Kyung-hwan wished.

“I think it's just a phone call. I'm going to ask Wizard Kim Kyung-hwan to contact your family. ”

I nod. A phone that couldn't track the location, it wasn't that difficult.

I was surprised at the minister's face for a moment to see if I had taken it easier than I thought.

“· · · I don't know what you think when you say this. ”

I hesitate to talk.

“Since you came back from New York, you seem a little different. ”

“Is that so?”

“You are facing someone else every time you meet, but it has nothing to do with it. I think something intrinsic has changed. ”

The conversation was there. I stood up, and the minister respectfully encouraged me to shake hands.

Hand in hand, the minister said with a serious eye.

“I don't know what happened in New York, but it seemed to mean a lot to you. ”

Currently, the missing American president told the Korean president a story about what happened in New York. Did the Korean government think about how it would treat the information internally, and did it end up believing it?

But he made a policy decision not to believe it, not to erase it from his head.

The story of the extinction of mankind. Is that what you keep in mind when it's true? Rolling the minister's words in my head for a moment, I looked like nothing.

“Yes, I was lucky. ”

Before the minister takes out the next words, I hide as if melting into the air.
